Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Improve grammar, tense and expand with a brief, natural explanation. Use past tense for past events, give a topic sentence and one or two supporting details linked logically. Keep it under five sentences.

Ví dụ: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. I lived in an apartment without much storage, so my parents preferred to buy me toys instead. As a result, I usually walked or took the bus to school.

Gợi ý: Correct subject–verb agreement and make the answer more specific with reasons or examples. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two supporting details using linking words (e.g., because, for example, therefore). Keep responses natural and concise.

Ví dụ: Yes, bicycles are very popular in my country because many people use them for short commutes and exercise. For example, in urban areas there are bike lanes and rental schemes, so lots of students and workers ride bikes daily.

× No, I don't have.

✓ No, I didn't.

The question 'Did you have a bike when you were a child?' is in the past tense, so the answer must use past tense. 'I don't have' is present tense and also missing an object (it sounds incomplete). Use 'I didn't' (short for 'I did not') to mean 'I did not have (a bike)'. For clarity, you can say 'No, I didn't have one' or 'No, I didn't have a bike.'

× Yes, it is very popular.

✓ Yes, they are very popular.

The examiner asked about 'bikes' (plural), so the response should refer to the plural subject. 'It' (singular) is incorrect here. Use 'they are' to agree with the plural noun 'bikes'. Alternatively, you could say 'Yes, bicycles are very popular' or 'Yes, they are very popular in my country.'
